If your TV has audio/video (A/V) input jacks, you will get a better picture
and sound when you hook up your VCR using these connections. If your
TV doesn’t have A/V inputs, see the following pages for antenna or cable
hookups.
If you’re not planning to use your VCR to record programs, you’re finished
setting up the VCR after you’ve made the connections shown on this page.
If you want to record off-air or off your cable TV system, complete these
connections first, and then go to the following pages for antenna or cable
hookups.
